Match prediction for Inter x Bologna

The teams Inter and Bologna will play at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in a clash of the 18th round of Serie A TIM. The history of head-to-head matches played at this stadium favors the home team, which in the last 5 matches has won 2 and drawn 3. However, in the last encounter at this stadium, in Serie A TIM on January 15, 2025, the game ended in a 2-2 draw. The goals of the match were scored by D. Dumfries (19′) and Lautaro Martínez (45′) for Inter and by Emil Holm (64′) and Santiago Castro (15′) for Bologna.

Analysis of Inter

After 12 wins and 4 losses, the home team is in 1st place, having earned 36 points. In the last match, they defeated Atalanta away (0-1) after previously winning against Genoa away (1-2). In the league, Inter has earned 18 points out of a possible 24, with 6 wins and 2 losses in their last 8 games played at home. In matches played at home in the league, the most frequent result at the end of the first 45 minutes has been 1-0, which has occurred in 3 of their 8 matches. Their attack has been consistent, scoring in 9 of their last 10 games in this competition. In their home matches in the league, there is a tendency for goals, as 6 out of 8 have finished with over 2.5 goals. This is a team that often scores first: they opened the scoring in 13 of their last 16 matches in Serie A TIM, from which 13 reached halftime in the lead in 9 and managed to maintain the lead until the end of the 90 minutes in 12 matches. There is 1 notable period in the last 20 home matches across all competitions: they conceded 6 of their 17 goals between the minutes (76′-90′).

The team arrives at this match motivated after a 0-1 victory against Atalanta; the only goal was scored by Lautaro Martínez. Coach Carlos Cuesta is expected to maintain his usual tactical setup of 3-5-2, which allows for quick transitions and the exploration of spaces left by the opponent. In attack, Marcus Thuram and Lautaro Martínez will be responsible for creating danger, with the task of unbalancing the opposing defense. The left flank is often the main avenue for progression, with left-back Federico Dimarco being a key piece due to his ability to breakthrough and push forward offensively. Raffaele Di Gennaro, Tomás Palacios, Matteo Darmian, Ange-Yoan Bonny, Francesco Acerbi, and Denzel Dumfries are ruled out for this match due to injuries.

Analysis of Bologna

After 7 wins, 5 draws, and 4 losses, the visiting team is in 7th place, having earned 26 points. In the last match, they drew with Sassuolo at home (1-1), after losing at home to Juventus (0-1) in the previous game. In the league, Bologna has earned 12 points out of a possible 24, with 3 wins, 3 draws, and 2 losses in their last 8 away games.

For this competition, they have not lost as visitors in 6 matches. There are some frequent results at the end of the first 45 minutes: 1-1 (3 in 8 matches) and 0-0 (3 in 8 matches). They have been consistent in attack, scoring in 8 of their last 10 matches in this competition. In 16 games in this competition, they conceded the first goal 8 times and managed to turn the score around only 2 times.

Bologna comes into this game after a 1-1 draw against Sassuolo; the only goal was scored by Giovanni Fabbian. The visiting team is expected to line up in their usual 4-3-3 formation, a system that favors quick transitions and wing play, particularly on the right flank. It is exactly on this flank that the most imbalances usually occur, largely thanks to the offensive depth of Nadir Zortea, the full-back who does not hesitate to push forward and support the attack. Up front, Thijs Dallinga, Riccardo Orsolini, and Jonathan Rowe form a dangerous trio capable of exploiting the spaces behind the opposing defense with quick movements and constant positional changes. Nicolò Casale and Federico Bernardeschi are out of this game due to physical issues.
